Suncool(tm) Glass

Pilkington Suncool(tm) glass assists in reduce solar heat gain and manage glare - especially in hot climates. Its coating is designed to allow short-wave solar radiation to reflect while allowing longer waves (generated from heating, lighting and the buildings' inhabitants) to flow through. This balances solar control with a high level of natural light.

The neutral blue of the SN 70/35 type provides superior solar protection. It has an exceptionally low internal reflection and excellent light transmission - ideal for large areas of glazing. This allows the most amount of sunlight to be absorbed into buildings, while decreasing the requirement for artificial lighting. This allows for energy savings and money saved on heating and cooling buildings throughout the year.

We used this glass to replace 380m2 of windowpanes at the Ridge Primary School and Gig Mill Primary Schools in Dudley, West Midlands. This included the hall for assembly, the entrance corridors offices, ICT suites as well as the nursery, corridors and toilets. The new glass helped to maintain a comfortable temperature, while also reducing costs for air conditioning and energy costs, which resulted in a better learning environment.

The unique U-channel design of the Intercept spacer reduces thermal conductivity and provides longer-lasting seals, which means amazing energy savings - and assisting in making your Maryland sunroom feel cozy all the year long.


Toughened Safety Glass

Toughened glass (also known as safety glass or tempered glass) is between four and five times stronger than normal glass of the same thickness. It is created by heating annealed glasses to high temperatures and then cooling them rapidly. This strengthens the structure and makes the glass more resistant to heat damage and. When it is broken toughened glass breaks into small, blunt cube-shaped pieces that are less likely to cause injury than the sharp shards of regular glass.

The toughening process can be used to enhance existing windows and doors or to design new ones. This kind of glass can be used for areas that require greater durability or thermal resistance like conservatory roofing, glass splashbacks and shower doors, or for shelves and tabletops in kitchens and bathrooms. It is also extensively used in commercial buildings, such as glass wall panels, defibrillator equipment access doors, as well as staircase balustrades.

It is essential to consider the type of glass you will use on the walls and masonry surrounding the new windows and doors. This will help to reduce the amount of energy lost through the glass, and also eliminates the need for expensive insulation.

A second benefit of using toughened glasses is that they can reduce dampness and condensation in your home. Conservatory Repairs witney is due to the fact that toughened glass can absorb moisture from the air and prevent it from escape through the frame and into the room.

Toughened glass can also be an excellent choice for doors and windows if you wish to minimize the noise that comes from outside entering your property. This is because it makes an acoustic sound when broken, and is much less noisy than the shattering and cracking of regular glass.

Leaded Glass

Leaded glass is a stylish option to improve the design of your conservatory. Its beauty enhances the natural light, creating a welcoming space that can be enjoyed throughout the year. It is crucial to remember that windows are fragile and require regular maintenance and repairs to ensure they remain beautiful.

Lamb Studios has the skill and know-how to restore your leaded windows or design new ones for your home or business. We provide a wide selection of materials that will meet your preferences and needs. Our clear panels can maximize natural light while our double-glazed insulated options can reduce the noise and help save energy.

When working with leaded glass, we begin by drawing a detailed pattern that will guide the cutting of individual pieces of glass. The glass is then cut using a variety of tools such as a glass cutter as well as running or breaking pliers. The pieces of glass are then put into a lead come, which is a metal strip that holds the window in place. The lead came can be shaped to suit any design and it is also possible to add intricate details like beveled edges or designs to the window.

The finished product is then soldered together in order to create a stable and secure window. It is important to only use solder that has an melting point that is similar to the alloy used in the lead glass and came when the window was originally made. You could damage the delicate leadwork and compromise the strength of the window if you are not careful.

Over time, your leaded glass may oxidize, and it's important to maintain the window by applying patina oil. This will reduce the oxidisation and prevent the window from being damaged.

Laminated Glass

Laminated glass for conservatory windows is very popular because it provides safety and security. It is created by gluing two glass panes with a plastic interlayer which could be polyvinyl butyral (PVB) or ethylene-vinyl Acetate (EVA). This process makes it harder to be hacked and less prone to shatter into sharp fragments. It also adds an extra layer of protection against sun's UV rays that can cause interior furnishings and fabrics to fade.

It is also stronger and more sound-proof than regular annealed glasses. It is available in various colors to suit the design of the space and it is possible to include switchable interlayers that allow panels to be transparent when a tiny current flows through it, and opaque when it is shut off.

Like the tempered glass, laminated glass is a long-lasting option that requires less maintenance than other types of windows. It is important to remember that moisture can cause the bonding agents within the interlayer to weaken. The risk of this happening is diminished by keeping the glass and interlayers clean by using only mild cleaning solvents, and avoiding abrasions as well as excessive exposure to heat.

Laminated glass can be recycled, unlike tempered glass which is treated chemically. This is done by putting the glass into a machine that separates it from the film that is inside that can then be melted and used in a new application. This is a better option for the environment instead of throwing the film and glass away. It is also safer than using denatured alcohol or flammable liquid to melt the glass that has been laminated.
